0646 Blackout

"I always feel like something is going to happen tonight..."

The president of the Chamber of Commerce, who was sitting in the study, turned to look at the gloomy sky outside the window, his face full of worry. He always had a feeling that something terrible would happen, but he didn't know where this feeling came from. , let alone why they appeared.

After looking at the night outside the window for a while, he looked away from the outside for a while and glanced at the housekeeper who was standing by the door waiting for a call anytime, "Is there anyone watching over Lynch?"

The butler bowed slightly, "Yes, sir, I have arranged for people to keep an eye on it. If anything happens, they will report it as soon as possible."

The butler stopped talking here, which also meant that nothing special happened.

The dull feeling made the president of the Chamber of Commerce feel like a huge stone was pressing on his chest, and his heartbeat occasionally hit the wrong beat. That momentary wrong beat would bring a terrible feeling to his body of losing all power in an instant, and also a kind of direct feeling. The feeling of death.

He didn't know if it was death, but he thought it was death.

Sitting made him uneasy, so he decided to stand up, walked to the window, looked at the sky outside the window, and sighed heavily, "It's going to rain."

"Yes, sir, summer is here."

Yes, summer is here, and places slightly closer to the sea may be hit by heavy rains anytime and anywhere.

"Ask people to turn on all the lights in the yard. Also, extra manpower will be deployed for patrol tonight." He turned around and walked towards the door. Now he was very upset and couldn't calm down to read a book or handle work. , then take a rest early.

He didn't tell the housekeeper why all the lights were turned on or why extra patrols were needed, because he felt a little scared.

Regardless of the fact that the empire is full of Gaevras, in fact the combat effectiveness of these Gaevras is worrying. On the contrary, the war capabilities of the Federation people have once again attracted people's attention.

He...shouldn't do this, right?

After all, this is Zhuris, the capital of the province of Amelia, and the core of the core of power rule. Lynch... shouldn't do anything exaggerated, right?

The president of the Chamber of Commerce did not realize that the reason for his heart palpitations and his eagerness to return to the bedroom came from a lack of security. He had people cut off the water and electricity at Lynch's side, which he had to do.

The governor made it so clear that if he didn't do something to show his attitude, he would end up being unpopular with both sides. Only if he did something and showed his tendency could he gain real security.

He put on his pajamas early, casually took a book and sat on the bed, covering himself with a quilt, forcing himself

Gradually, his attention was attracted by the words in the book, so that he temporarily forgot his previous uneasiness.

At this moment, when he was immersed in the words, suddenly a thunder sounded in his ears, and the boom sounded as if a hole had been hammered out of the sky by this thunder.

Suddenly there was heavy rain, and everything outside the window became extremely blurry. The dark clouds seemed to be within reach. As long as you stood higher, you could reach out and touch them.

The heavy rain calmed down the president of the Chamber of Commerce. In this bad weather, no one would be running around outside. He shook his head, with a mocking smile on his face, as if he was laughing at his own timidity.

He returned to bed, picked up the book, and was about to continue reading when suddenly the light bulb in the room went out.

In the darkness, a bolt of lightning swam in the dark clouds like a silver snake, briefly lighting up the dark world, but soon returned to darkness under the dark clouds.

The belated thunder in his ears woke up the surprised Chamber of Commerce President. He touched the darkness in the direction of the door in his memory without even putting on his shoes.

The bedroom door suddenly opened and it was the housekeeper.

There are two maids behind the butler. They are holding trays in their hands. There are six silver candlesticks on the tray, and there are more than a dozen candles in each candlestick.

The appearance of these candles brought light back to the room. The president of the Chamber of Commerce's hands trembled slightly. He pressed on the butler's arm, trying to calm his heart and trembling voice, "What's wrong, is there something wrong with the line? "

He thought of the thunder from before. Sometimes lightning can also damage the lines. This often happened in Gefra, so he didn't think much about other places.

The housekeeper shook his head, took a step back, and kept a certain distance from the president of the Chamber of Commerce to show his respect for him. "I have arranged for someone to check, but I think it may have nothing to do with us. If you notice other If a similar situation happens somewhere else.”

The president of the Chamber of Commerce was stunned, and quickly walked to the window and looked outside. The entire city was dark, and there was no light at all.

As if he suddenly thought of something, he pushed open the window and leaned out, looking in other directions. The heavy rain instantly made him wet, and everything he saw was pitch black.

power cut!

How could there be a power outage?

In order to ensure the power supply in the Imperial District, Governor Seder cut 80% of the city's power supply system to fully meet the power needs in the Imperial District.

At the same time, in order to save the last power plant, many warning posts and machine gun fortresses were arranged around the last power plant and the power plant, and the overall structure of the power plant was also reinforced. It is impossible that something will happen, right?

What does he... really dare to do?

The president couldn't help but think that he had people destroy the wires at Lynch's side and also damaged their water pipes in the name of road construction. Is this revenge from him?

But... how dare he destroy the last power plant in the city in revenge? Isn't he afraid that the Governor will hang him in the square?

The dark night and heavy rain outside the window are like a demon, making people shudder and feel fear.

There is not much technical difference between Gaevra's telecommunications equipment and the federal telecommunications equipment. In other words, the terminal power supply still depends on the machinery itself, that is, the telephone itself.

Every landline phone has an electric plug. The phone can only be used when this plug is inserted into a live socket. Otherwise, it will not work at all.

It is precisely because of this that the entire city's communications are now paralyzed instantly, and people don't even know what is happening at the power plant!

With the pouring rain and the extremely dark sky at this time, no one considered going to the power plant to see what was going on, including Governor Seder.

He was reading some information when the lights suddenly went out. By the time he remembered something, there was no sound on the phone.

He was also standing by the window looking out at the dark night, his face as gloomy as the weather at this time. He never expected that Lynch's counterattack would come so quickly and violently.

It's just that he has no choice now. The staff of the Governor's Mansion has been completely reduced. Who knows if those anti-Japanese armed forces will come to the interior of the empire.

The only thing people in the Imperial District of this city can do at this moment is to wait quietly for dawn.

In the darkness, Lin Qi looked at the heavy rain outside the window leisurely. Compared with the complicated expressions on other people's faces, there was only a smile on his face.

"Turn off my power?"

"Then let's cut off the power together!"

Early the next morning, the Governor's Mansion sent people to the power plant to investigate the situation. The news reported back was not very good. Several units had suffered varying degrees of damage, and about one-third of the units were no longer available. Repair value.

As for the others, even if parts are removed from the broken units, it will take several days to repair them. During these days, everyone has to endure the invasion of darkness.

If power outages are only part of the trouble, then water outages are another part. Without electricity, various equipment cannot work, and naturally it is impossible to provide water to the entire city.

Everything became turbulent because the power plant was attacked by a terrorist organization, and there seemed to be some faint signs of riots in cities outside the Empire District.

Even in broad daylight, there would occasionally be brief and rapid gunshots, and the capital city of Zhulis began to implement curfew and control again.

All this also makes people realize that it is easy to control Lynch, but the cost is a bit hurtful.

No one thought about touching Lynch, let alone whether touching him would hurt him. The chain reaction caused by touching him might cause some things to slide into an uncontrollable abyss.

So even if Governor Seder made some guesses and even determined that Lynch was related to these things, he couldn't do anything to Lynch, especially since he didn't have any substantive evidence to prove that Lynch was related to these things. .

At the same time, on the other side, Governor Seder's son had already set foot on federal land.

The journey from Amelia to the Federation is very short. Crossing the Upper Channel and continuing north is the southern coast of the Federation. One day is enough.

As the son of the Governor of Amelia Province, this young man, who still did not have his own name, alerted the Security Committee and the Intelligence Bureau as soon as he entered the country, and the local Security Committee sent people to make tentative contacts.

If he is here to do bad things, then warn him first not to do bad things, as he will definitely be caught if he does bad things.

If he is here to do good deeds, send someone to help him do good deeds together and prevent him from encountering mishaps in the Federation.

This is not Gaevra. With the name of a nobleman, even thugs dare not attack him. In the eyes of these gang members in the Federation, as long as the benefits are big enough and they can bear the cost of doing things, there is nothing they can't do. Dare to do it.

When the two agents approached the young man from Amelia, he seemed to be mentally prepared, not panicked at all, and even smiled.

"Good morning, gentlemen, I'm here to discuss business, big business!"

"So you'd better report it as soon as possible, don't waste each other's time!"
